Disability Cost of Living Payment

Hello there @pjward79 and thanks for your query. To answer your question, I'm afraid not, unless you are entitled to one of the benefits listed here:

Disability Cost of Living Payment

You may get a lump sum payment of £150 from 20 September 2022 if you get:

• Attendance Allowance
• Constant Attendance Allowance
• Disability Living Allowance (DLA) for adults
• Disability Living Allowance (DLA) for children
• Personal Independence Payment (PIP)
• Armed Forces Independence Payment
• War Pension Mobility Supplement

You’re eligible if you got a payment for 1 of these benefits for 25 May 2022.

If you and your child get 1 of these benefits, you should get a lump sum for each claim.

Does that makes sense? Let us know if we can help with anything else
